| Summary: | Algiers currently suffers from a very pronounced city/port separation, the
negative consequences of this situation affect the daily life of the city, the
urban interests of the city, mainly the comfort of the citizens, overlap with
the economic interests of the port, because urban activity and port activity
remain opposite in nature. Based on its conflicted situation between city
and port, the purpose of this article is to prospect through a set of future
city / port scenarios. Using the scenario method, this research is carried
out in two parts, in a first phase, the aim is to understand the evolution and
mutations of port cities considered standard on a global scale, on this basis,
and in a second phase, the objective is to prospect the future urban-port of
Algiers. Four scenarios for the future reconversion of the port of Algiers, in
which Algiers could become one of the great world capitals, are discussed.
In fine, the appropriate scenario could be the one that proposes the
organization of a universal event such as the Olympic Games. This option
remains very interesting and feasible because it will achieve all the goals to
promote Algiers in a sustainable way and to put it back in competitiveness
against its rivals and counterparts in Mediterranean metropolises.
